Small habits count, but how do you do them?

You don't do them by trying to overhaul your whole life all at once.

Identify your anchor habits, be realistic, aware, and intentionally consistent to be successful.

Let's talk about how to make small habits stick while also avoiding burnout.

It's easy to make big, exciting goals - but the execution is where we usually get tripped up.

Big goals are exciting and possible, but it's the small, consistent habits that create big change.

Practice habit stacking, track your efforts, and celebrate along the way. Success is closer than you think.

XO,

Shannon

Perfection can be crippling because it feels unattainable, especially long-term.

Consistent self-discipline will not only get you results, it will increase your self-confidence.

You need to learn to trust yourself, and that starts with your daily choices and decisions, because it's not just others who are worth your time and efforts - you are worth showing up for too.

Shannon

It's often easy to show up for others, keep our word and be praised for our efforts.

But when it comes to keeping our commitments to ourselves, it's often the easiest thing to delay or break.

You are arguably your most important investment. Learning to practice self-discipline is one of the greatest strengths you can exercise as you grow.

Shannon

Rest is often viewed as weakness. It can be tempting to adopt this belief and try to push yourself as hard as possible to be increasingly productive and present.

Productivity and presence are important, but their quality and your happiness skyrocket when you take care of yourself.

Learning the importance of rest and that your worth is not tied to what you can do for others is one of the most mature lessons you can learn.

It's tempting to think that because you're busy, you must be important.

Busy is not the goal. Learning to rest your mind and body is one of the wisest, most mature things you can do.

When we are too stressed and tired, we become more irritable, sick, and unhappy.

A healthy boundary to practice is in your schedule, learning to include intentional rest.

Shannon

Boundaries are necessary to help you protect your peace.

Even if others don't understand or like them, if you are implementing them to help you feel safe and increase your confidence - you need to hold to them for your sake.

You do not need to continue to explain your rational or stance unless you want to, because this is your life that you are responsible for, so you need to find peace and have confidence in your decision and choices.

Shannon

Over-explaining is a common habit, but comes from a place of insecurity.

The more we can have confidence in who we are and all we're becoming, the more we can show up confidently in our life and relationships.

Healthy boundaries allow us to create guardrails for our thoughts, emotions, time management, and overall habits. They help guide us towards our goals and to be who we want to be.

Boundaries are not selfish, but in fact are one of the most respectful, mature, loving things we can do for ourselves and others.

You don't need to explain yourself when it comes to your boundaries, but you do need to hold true to your values and practices to continue to be all you're meant to be.

XO,

Shannon
